Enterprise Content Management (ECM)
1. Business Assessment. Enterprise Content Management (ECM) should be implemented to help an organization achieve its business objectives and strategies. Recent industry studies indicate four primary drivers for ECM adoption: cost reduction, enhancing customer service, ensuring business continuity, and regulatory compliance. Organizations should do a thorough assessment of their needs in these key areas and identify the strategic imperatives that should be targeted by ECM. Return on the investment (ROI) provides proof of how ECM supports the organization’s business strategies. Success is identified by measuring business benefits.

Intelligent Information Management (IIM)
Where has the action been in technology over the past decade? I can tell you one thing for certain. It has been in a very different place than it was during the early stages of my professional career. For most of my career, the action has been in PC-centric applications and solutions that were delivered by the IT gods and goddesses at the organizations for which I worked. I have been lucky to work for some pretty flexible organizations, but most of the time, I was a pretty good corporate citizen even without mandates or restrictions. It was rare that I would covet some piece of software or hardware from home and wish I could get it at work. Enterprise IT was a pretty cool place.
